He also has a substantial NHS practice in General and Paediatric ENT conditions and is happy to consult on such complaints. Common presentations he reviews include hoarseness, discomfort in the throat, nasal congestion, neck/throat lumps, cough and ear pain. 

He graduated with an honour’s degree from Trinity College Dublin and developed his love for ENT Surgery as a junior doctor in the Oxford region.
